You touched the lives of many. Your humor and smile will be missed.

This is going to sound very strange but I happen to come across some of Wanda's things a few years back, and I kept a small collection of items. I loved looking through her mementos and photos from her trips. I never knew Wanda but I could tell from these items that she was truly a special person. I am sorry for your loss. If anyone in the family would like these items, please let me know and I would be happy to get them back to your family. Thank you.
